Reels

In my head there are only nightmares.


Reels of never ending memories that seem to be on repeat
I can’t find the stop button, I think it may be broken
they haunt and taunt me until my past becomes a mirage to the present.
I reach for it but grasp only its fridges after taste.
I run and scream but my legs buckle underneath me and only a whisper escapes
my lips
the mirage becomes hazy and soon disappears with the breeze of my whisper
I wake up, the reality of my disappointment doubles as I look at the clock.
3 a.m.
I lay back down and close my eyes, only to welcome another nightmare.
Another disappointment
another knife is stabbed through my soul as another real unfolds behind my eyes
I wonder if I'll wake up from this one.
